Since I just recently finished Haruki Murakami's novel The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle, I couldn’t help but laugh when I came across this Grant Snider comic titled Haruki Murakami Bingo. I am now on my third Murakami novel and I can say with certainty that I have encountered all of the scenes illustrated in Snider’s comic in at least one of Murakami’s books. And what could be cooler than this comic? The fact that if you go to Snider’s website (http://www.incidentalcomics.com/) and scroll down you will find the “Haruki Murakami Bingo” comic translated into Japanese! I hope that Mr. Snider bestows us with more literary comics like this one in the future! :)
